The overarching mission of ODA's Parent Volunteers is to actively support, promote, and strengthen the ODA school community in the areas of academics, the arts, and athletics. Parent volunteers are responsible for "putting the cherry on the top" of an already great ODA experience.

Parent Community Event Board

The Parent Community Event Board supports school-wide community engagement by planning and executing large-scale parent and community events, including Thunder Fun Day, Parent Luncheon(s), and the Banyan Ball/Bash. This group exists to strengthen community connection, support school culture, and create meaningful engagement opportunities for ODA families.

Parent Division Liaisons

Parent Division Liaisons support division-specific programming, family engagement, volunteer coordination, and community communication across their assigned school division.

Grade Level Parents

Room Parents support Lower School classroom-level family engagement and communication while strengthening relationships among classroom families, educators, and the school community.
